Nigel Owens has been talking about his Lions contender with these four, including his captain, earning a lot of praise.
1. Alun Wyn Jones (Wales)
- Age: 35
- Position: Second-row

“Many were questioning whether Alun Wyn would even make the Lions tour, some citing his age, let alone have any chance of getting into the Test XV.
“I suspect a few of those critics are hiding behind a sofa because the Six Nations has changed everything again.”
